Progress

Ah, blogging again. Time to breathe.

After a few days of monotonous humdrum, I am happy to report that there has been progress in a few departments of LIW's world.

First, the new apartment. As of yesterday, I got a new shower. Well, when I first moved in a week ago, all they installed was a temporary rickety shower. Apparently, they were procrastinating, or whatever the reason for the delay, they were not able to install a permanent shower in time for my move. So they installed a temporary thing for me to use in the meantime. But as of yesterday, I now have a spanking new glass shower. Yay!

Second, the upcoming fall semester. I am done devising the final project that I will require my students. And funny because I am actually excited to have them do it. Oh I know that some students will hate me for requiring them to do this. The final project is about documenting a foreign language. It is a mini-fieldwork, designed for undergraduate students.

I am also progressing on the lectures I am giving. I have scheduled the 14 weeks of the semester accordingly, planning the contents of the lectures for every time the class will meet. So far I am done with the first few meetings.

So, there you have it. A brief update on my egosphere. I'll show you a picture of my desk, but unfortunately I don't have my camera with me. Maybe next time.
